This is over optimism based on the moderate success of translation of non creative writing.Most science and news reports, is very mechanical. We are born with mechanism that universally holds for every language, in terms of organizing adjectives, substantives, agreements. What the machine does is to identify this elements in a language using statistics based on collections, and parse the equivalent to another language, also based on statistics.
Now writing, specially creative writting relies on context. Guessing what will happen, as it is alleged in the text, won't make anything worth.
